Responses:

general-purpose enteral formulas that contain mostly intact proteins and polysaccharides
enteral formulas designed to meet the nutrient needs of patients with specific illnesses
a formula with an osmolality similar to that of blood serum (300 mOsm/kg)
enteral formulas that are made by blenderizing whole foods
enteral formulas that contain only one or two macronutrients; used to enhance other formulas
the osmotic property of a solution, based on its concentrations of molecules and ionic particles
enteral formulas that contain macronutrients that have been partially or fully hydrolyzed
a formula with an osmolality greater than that of blood serum
the provision of nutrients using the GI tract, including the use of tube feedings and oral diets
